A.J. Green carted from practice, believed to have suffered sprained ankle
Cincinnati Bengals star receiver A.J. Green appeared to injure his lower left leg Saturday at practice.
Green is believed to have suffered a sprained ankle, but he's still scheduled to undergo an MRI, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
The veteran wideout had his left foot examined and the training staff attended to him before he was carted to the locker room, according to multiple reporters on site, including Joe Danneman of FOX19 Now.
Green was seen shortly after on crutches and with his foot wrapped.

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor didn't want to jump to conclusions before receiving a diagnosis.
"You don't want to assume anything, but I think we're going to be OK," Taylor said, according to NFL Network's James Palmer.
Green, 30, has struggled through foot issues before. He injured his right foot last season and was sidelined in December with torn ligaments in a toe on the same foot, an injury that was given a three-to-four month return timetable.
